Question

Is FileToPDF2 api of "Adobe Distiller DC" got updated?

As per  https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/distiller_api_reference.pdf  this  documentation  "FileToPDF"  API accepts 4 parameters.

It was working in the older version of Distiller DC.

We updated the Distiller DC to version 19.10.20100325521

After that it gives the error as  "Microsoft VBScript runtime error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment: 'FileToPDF".

We tested it by passing 5 arguments it started working fine.

But if we create the script by passing 5 arguments it doesn't support the older version of Distiller.

have you updated this API? or are we looking into wrong document?

Can you let us know what is the issue?

Hi,

Can you post that actual code that you are using?

Earlier it was working with this bit of code:

Set theDistillerObj = CreateObject( "PdfDistiller.PdfDistiller6" )

theDistillerObj.FileToPDF2 Wscript.Arguments(0), Wscript.Arguments(1), Wscript.Arguments(2), 1

In old distiller it works perfectly fine. The arguments are exactly what is explained in SDK.

In new distiller we get error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment: 'FileToPDF2"

But if we pass the last argument as below it seems to work:

theDistillerObj.FileToPDF2 Wscript.Arguments(0), Wscript.Arguments(1), Wscript.Arguments(2), 0, 1

Notice the zero (0) before last argument 1.

A small changes in the question

It's "FileToPDF2" API not "FileToPDF".
